TAISETSU(大雪) is the 21st season of the 24 seasons. Some parts of Japan get snow and start to stick, but not in plain areas of Shikoku. Today, It’s about superstitious fish for people who want to succeed in their business or career, today. The fish is in season, this time of the year. Let’s find it out.

The Fish Climbs Up Their Career Ladders?!

There are a few fish Japanese people call “出世魚(/shusse-uo/)”. These fish are popular to gain the luck to succeed. Why? Because these fish change their name as they grow. Like us in the office! If we did well, years go by our title change. One of the fish is BURI.

鰤(/buri/) – yellowtail
Yellowtails change their titles.

ジャコモ(/jakomo/) – ワカナ(/wakana/) – ツバス(/tsubasu/) – ハマチ(/hamachi/) – ブリ鰤

The name changes by the size & weight. BURI is the yellowtail that weighs 4kg or more.
The season to eat BURI is from the end of October till the end of the year.
Kagawa Prefecture, where we are in, is the first place that succeeded to farm Yellowtails. There is a farm you can visit and do fun activities.
